Daylight savings was today, so that means that the time difference between Singapore and Melbourne is now 3 hours. Last semester I don't recall being so stressed about work. Perhaps it is a self-fulfilling prophesy? People are saying I'm stressed this semester, though I never really felt the full effect of it. I don't think I'm stressed as much as I am worried. Accounting this semester has been terrible. I've been clueless in almost 90% of the tutorials, very demoralising there. My assignments have been borderline passes, a miracle there. And to top it all off, the exam is a hurdle, with a history of a high fail rate.
Having painted a very gloomy picture, the only good thing I've heard about the subject is that the exams have been getting easier since 2005, which was the year with the hardest paper. Last semester I could go to the library at like 9am, and work till 11pm or 12am. This semester, I find it a chore to wake up at 9, and I usually stop study at 5 or 6. But I've covered all the work, and yet I feel I'm missing something. I guess I'm just not used to the changed lifestyle yet.
